Right after you were born, the blood and vernix on your body was washed off by a nurse or even your mom or dad. Have you taken a bath or shower since the day you were born? Of course you have. Our bodies continually become dirtied, requiring new cleansing. It...

It is a useful Christian discipline to recount often the goodness of God and express thanksgiving for his mercies. This year's 2010 Ministry Update does that again as we see the way the Lord has worked through Ligonier's various outreaches. And, it gives us the opportunity to say "thank you" again to the thousands of ministry supporters who uplift this sacred cause with their prayers and financial support.

God calls us to think His thoughts after Him. That means all of His thoughts. That is, we ought to have a sound and biblical view on everything the Bible touches on. Where it touches on political issues, we are called, again to have sound biblical views. We need to think biblically about what is just war and what is not. We need to think faithfully about taxation, and the size and scope of government. We need to think through what obligation, if any the state has to protect property, to protect our lives.

I find it difficult, if not impossible, to get inside the head of Abraham on his journey to Mount Moriah. I have never had the experience of being called to slay my son for the glory of God. The closest thing to it in my own experience pales into insignificance by comparison. It occurred not with my son, but with my dog.

On October 31st, we celebrate Reformation Day in honor of the day in 1517 when Martin Luther nailed the Ninety-five Theses to the door in Wittenberg and thus sparked a reformation.
But what did Martin Luther stand for? What did he believe? What can we learn from Luther and the Protestant Reformation? Could it happen again today? Find answers to these questions and more in these various resources, articles, and messages. In celebration of Reformation Day, we are also providing four free MP3 messages by Dr. Sproul on Luther and the reformation.

If I have heard it once, I’ve heard it a thousand times: “A Calvinist evangelist? Isn’t that an oxymoron? Calvinism undermines evangelism.” This accusation has been repeated so many times that few make the effort to argue it. Instead, it is simply assumed. Never mind that some of the church’s greatest evangelists have been Calvinists. One need only be reminded of men such as George Whitefield, David Brainerd, or “the father of modern missions,” William Carey. “Yes,” we are told, “these men were great evangelists and Calvinists, but that is because they were inconsistent.” But is this true?

"The Bible is a book that is bigger on the inside than it is on the outside. Look at it from one perspective, and it’s rather a small book. It occupies less space on a shelf than a dictionary. Some versions you can even carry in your pocket. Yet when we consider all that is within it, it’s a rather large book. It equips us for every good work (2 Tim. 3:16). Its riches can and will occupy our meditations into eternity."
